'''Upthsung''' is a [[Wikipedia:left to right|left to right]] script used to write [[Ru]], the official language of the [[Ru|Democratic Republic of Ru]], derived from the Mani abugida.  
 
Upthsung was adapted from the Mani script, which is used in Akulanen. The oldest dated inscription in Ru was found in Daythion, dated 445 CE. The modern version of the script has not varied significantly throughout the ages, having occasional spelling reforms throughout its history. The current spelling reform is dated 1952.


The orthography of this script reflects the pronunciation of the language.[10] Unlike the Latin alphabet, the script has no concept of letter case.[11] It is written from left to right, has a strong preference for symmetrical rounded shapes within squared outlines and is recognisable by a horizontal line that runs along the top of full letters.[7] In a cursory look, the Devanagari script appears different from other Brahmic scripts such as Bengali, Odia or Gurmukhi, but a closer examination reveals they are very similar except for angles and structural emphasis.[7]

A example of Upthsung.

Upthsung is a left to right script used to write Ru, the official language of the Democratic Republic of Ru, derived from the Mani abugida.

Upthsung was adapted from the Mani script, which is used in Akulanen. The oldest dated inscription in Ru was found in Daythion, dated 445 CE. The modern version of the script has not varied significantly throughout the ages, having occasional spelling reforms throughout its history. The current spelling reform is dated 1952.
